How a Realist Hero Rebuilt The Kingdom

Book 3: Afterword

Afterword

Thank you for buying How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom III. This is Dojyomaru. I have one page for the afterword this time. Now then, what should I use it for?

Well, I suppose I’ll touch on the content of this volume just a little. Oh, this is going to involve spoilers, so if you’re reading the afterword first, please come back when you finish the main story.

Now then, this volume includes about one-third of what was labeled as the Post-War Arc in the web version. It’s the section that addresses what Souma will do with the capital of the Principality of Amidonia, which he occupied in the previous volume, as well as what he will do with those who rebelled against him. I believe both the good and bad points of this story come out especially strongly in this volume, and I am thinking with some trepidation about how it will be received by readers as I write this afterword. That miniature pseudo-thesis that received mixed reviews has all been included here, after all.

Now then, that girl who might best be called a “seriousness breaker” will start to really get involved in the story next volume. What’s more, what’s more, I’m planning to fix the pits that were written out of sequence in the web serialization into a proper chronological order, so I hope you’ll join me again next time.

Finally, I give Fuyuyuki, who has once again drawn lovely pictures for us, my editor, the copywriter, and all of you, the readers out there who support me, my greatest thanks.

This has been Dojyomaru.
